Hi Eric,

Styles doesn't begin to do what Reveal Codes does.

Just simple things like when Bold or Italics stop and start, where
languages change, etc. It's far easier to SEE a code, delete where
necessary or place a cursor.

Reveal codes seems to be the major feature that keeps people using
Word Perfect. here's got to be a reason. Why Word never did this, I
don't know, but Open Office should.

OpenOffice has the feature to search for attributes and formats and mark the text parts accordingly. Have you ever use it?

It is very powerful. But one shortcoming is, that it looses the highlighting when you click in the text to edit something. Perhaps it would help to make the marking persistent until the user turns it off explicitly or searches again?

Kind regards
Regina
One comment about the shortcoming: Once you click in the text, you can click Find again to highlight the next occurrence. Below the vertical scroll bar are two double arrows. Once you have defined a search, you can use these to search forward or backward.
